Welcome To My World

Trivia sucked so bad last night. I swear. Sometimes I get SO frustrated. I can’t hear in there half the time, people gripe when I don’t say their answers and I screw up the answer half the time. In short, we were terrible. I still had fun but my goodness I would like to win once...it would make me feel a little smarter.

I don’t have much to say today. My grandmother and aunt are coming to visit from Chattanooga tomorrow and I’m pretty excited. I don’t have too many major weekend plans.

The only thing I did really want to say was how obnoxious I think the phrase, “welcome to my world,” is to me. I say it sometimes...so I am speaking to myself. I know that there is such a thing as empathy but when you are trying to tell someone your problems and their immediate reaction is, “welcome to my world,” you kind of want to smack them...or is that just me? I know some people mean well but I know someone that literally won’t let you make the conversation about yourself. You could go, “My head hurts,” and she would go, “Welcome to my world, you have no idea.” Not only does this person have a headache but they are going to pass out and die at any moment. This is with every conversation...EVERY conversation. I just don’t understand why people WANT to win the “I have it worse,” game. It really chaps my behind. I am going to make a concerted effort to NOT say that phrase or undercut people when they are telling me a problem. If you want the conversation to be that one sided...get a blog. Anyway, that was a reaction to a really obnoxious girl I overheard at Newk’s last night.

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! I love FRIDAY!

About Me

I am what my Dad calls a healthy girl who is trying to be less...healthy? None of it makes sense but I am going to attempt to hash it all out here. I love my dog, my family and my friends. Seems silly to tell you much about myself since I will be telling you that sort of thing quite often.
